How do you determine the centiMorgan value for a DNA segment?
The Family Tree DNA Bioinformatics team works with centiMorgan (cM) data from the International HapMap project. Current knowledge of centiMorgan values across the human genome comes from the International HapMap project testing. The International HapMap project tested father-mother-child trios from global population groups. Using this information, they mapped recombination rates across the human genome.
